OUR COMPANY OUR GOVERNANCE OUR PEOPLE OUR COMMUNITIES THE ENVIRONMENT THE NUMBERS AND SMALL PRINT The T-Mobile Project 10Million has had a major impact on the students in our district. Brocton Central School is a small rural district with some areas where high speed internet is not possible through the typical means via cable, fiber, or DSL, due to geographic location. The district has been struggling to find funds to supply our students with internet in our community for remote instruction and access to online resources. With Project 10Million we have been able to connect those students and families with hotspots which have been critical for learning during the pandemic. Even as we have transitioned back to in-person learning, an internet connection is a necessity for today’s classrooms to prepare students for higher learning and their future workplaces.” Michael Schultz Director of Technology and Communications & Chief Data Privacy Officer, Brocton Central School, NY PROJECT 10MILLION IMPACT STORIES Education is essential, it ensures the future of our communities and our country. However, it only works when all students have the same access to instruction regardless of their demographic circumstances. T-Mobile safeguarded our ability to provide equity and inclusion to all of our families through Project 10Million. My team and the entire Borough of Middlesex are infinitely thankful for this. Helping people in their time of need is a rare quality in internet service providers.” Damien J. Dimino Technology Manager, Middlesex Borough School District, NJ For many of our students and their families, internet access is not only about access to educational resources, but a lifeline to online telehealth services, job exploration resources, or safety net programs. When we decided to accelerate and expand our efforts to provide our students and their families with reliable internet connectivity at home, T-Mobile and Project 10Million were the obvious choice for us to partner with. What we needed was a partner who not only understood our needs, but who would align their goals with ours and be mutually invested in our mission. We know our work isn’t done yet, but T-Mobile and Project 10Million are committed to continue working with us until access to reliable internet is a reality for all students of Miami-Dade County Public Schools.” Sylvia J.
